- 5:27–5:57 Vacuum Each Stair Step
From How to Prep Stairs for Holiday Guests, Step 2: Vacuum Treads and Risers
Carefully vacuum each individual step of the staircase, starting from the top and working your way down. Use a handheld vacuum cleaner or the appropriate hose attachment on a larger vacuum to reach into corners and edges of each step. This ensures thorough removal of dust, pet hair, and other debris that can accumulate on carpeted stairs.
- 5:58–6:12 Wipe Down Stair Banisters
From How to Prep Stairs for Holiday Guests, Step 6: Clean Banister and Handrail
Complete the hallway cleaning by wiping down all banisters and spindles on the staircase. Apply a general-purpose cleaner (such as Zoflora) to a clean cloth or use cleaning wipes. Thoroughly wipe all surfaces of the banister, including the handrail and each spindle, to remove dust, grime, and fingerprints. This final touch will leave the entire staircase feeling clean and looking polished.
